As his air supply ran out and the tank filled with water, Houdini was rushed to the hospital, where he was treated for near-drowning. Unfortunately, something went wrong and Houdini was unable to get out of the box in time. The trick was simple yet dangerous – Houdini would be locked inside a box and submerged in a water-filled tank, where he would then have to escape before running out of air. On July 6th, 1912, Houdini took to the stage in Boston to perform his underwater box escape. But one of his most daring feats almost cost him his life – an escape from a water-filled tank that nearly drowned him. His daring escapes from handcuffs, locked chests, straightjackets and even jails captivated audiences around the world. Harry Houdini was one of the most iconic and legendary magicians of all time.
